The Pink Opaque was compiled to bring together the best of the Cocteau Twins' early works to become the band’s first official release in the US. Already a cult band on college radio, some classics like "Pearly-Dewdrops Drops" and "Aikea-Guinea" were given new mixes for this release, while it’s noted for also featuring "Millimillenary," the first run out for incoming band member Simon Raymonde. To this day, it remains a great entry point to a wonderful band.
